Summary
'Family Britain' continues David Kynaston's history of post-war Britain with a portrait of the 1950s, a time when Britain was starting to move away from the hardships of austerity. Great national events jostle alongside everything that gave 1950s Britain its distinctive flavour from Butlin's holiday camps, Kenwood food mixers and Hancock's Half Hour to Ekco television sets, skiffle and teddy boys. Family Britain offers a perspective on Britain during seven momentous years. 2010
